    Bethesda released the surprisingly tame system requirements for the PC version of Fallout 4. In addition, Bethesda also noted just how much storage space you'll need for the console releases of the game.
    Minimum
    Windows 7/8/10 (64-bit OS required)
    Intel Core i5-2300 2.8 GHz/AMD Phenom II X4 945 3.0 GHz or equivalent

    30 GB free HDD space
    NVIDIA GTX 550 Ti 2GB/AMD Radeon HD 7870 2GB or equivalent

    8 GB RAM
    30 GB free HDD space
    NVIDIA GTX 780 3GB/AMD Radeon R9 290X 4GB or equivalent

    Console Storage Space
    Make sure you have enough space in the vault to store Fallout 4.
    Fallout 4 requires 28-35 GB depending on territory and languages supported.

    On top of this great news, the team revealed that the game will be released at 12:01AM (ET) in North America on November 10. In other parts of the world except for Asia and Japan, the game will be out at 12:01AM your local times. Asia will get it at 12AM on November 11 and Japan gets it at 12AM on December 17.

    I will leave you with the brief FAQ for Fallout 4.
    Does Fallout 4 have gamepad support on PC?
    Fallout 4 has plug & play compatibility with both the Xbox One and Xbox 360 controllers. Alternate controller options may require additional user adjustments

    Does Fallout 4 support Steam Achievements?
    Yes.

    What platforms and phones support the Fallout 4 Pip-Boy App?
    The Fallout 4 Pip-Boy App is usable in tandem with Fallout 4 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC. The App is supported on iOS, Android, and Windows Phone devices.

    When will the Pip-Boy App become available?
    It will be available for the launch of Fallout 4 on November 10.

    What phones will fit in the Pip-Boy Edition Pip-Boy?
    The Pip-Boy included will have foam inserts that fit iPhone 6/6s, iPhone 5/5s, iPhone 4/4S, Samsung Galaxy S5, Samsung Galaxy S4, and Samsung Galaxy S3. In addition, using the customizable foam insert you should be able to fit most other popular smartphone devices. As we wanted to stay faithful to the dimensions of the in-game model, any smartphones larger than the models listed will not fit inside the wearable device, but can still use the Pip-Boy App.

    What is the latest update on the Creation Kit, modding, downloadable content, and Season Pass?
    For the latest information, please read our most recent update posted on Bethesda.net

    Is there a pre-order bonus?
    Everyone who pre-orders a physical copy of the regular or Pip-Boy Edition of the game will receive a Perk Poster with your copy of the game. Digital pre-order bonuses vary by retailer, check with your retailer for more info.
